What are you looking for? What sort of criteria does it have to meet, dump rate, profile, etc. Most dry suit manufactures, leisure pro at times, and almost any dive shop would be able to accomodate you. Are you self installing?

A few people rave about sitec (sp?). I've never had a problem with my apeks ones

There are a few choices here. However, I will get to the point. I like Si TeK Valves. They are lower profile, unlike DUI valves. They are variable dump, fast if you wish, or slow or off. Parts are easy to come by, and they are reasonably priced. I wash mine out after each dive, I don't disassemble them, of course I'm not ocean diving in all that sand either. Your doing the right thing, ASK!

I prefer the low profile apeks valves that come on the DUI suits!

They are variable speed and very quick a dumping they are dreamy and i've owned alot these seem to be the best available
IMO.

Good luck!
